The keeper of together
stands dead centre
on a dusty mantle
wrapped tightly in muslin layers
In-between death and the boat
sailing out of Hades
carrying only the big things
Lessons.

THIS ONE.. well just tickles me gray matter.. I like the wrapping in muslin.. kind of see the matter oozing out between the cotton holes.. but more than that Lisa .. Our sweet little minds do tend to carry such loads.. from hell and back again ..Perfection all the way! XXXo

When I think of you
I find
A muse that stirs me
To my soul
And what attracts me
Is your mind
A mind that makes
A like mind whole :-)

Lisa Jewell replied
You are a brave man,
for there are some that consider my mind
insane.
Tis a good thing I am harmless ;)
sigh I’m so very flattered x x
Matt Penfold
Sanity is not a prerequisite for a lovable mind ;-)
Lisa Jewell replied
